He failed to anticipate what would happen when Spike's real parents found out.

Twilight Velvet needs more recognition and respect, that's for sure
There is little more terrifying than a mother who has seen her child hurt.
The Sparkles are like New Yorkers, they don't always get along, but if you mess with one you mess with all of them. Also all three offspring are heroes where do you think it came from?
For another look at Twilight Velvet and Night light have a look at this story.
"Meeting the Parents" by Weavers of Dreams
It's a good thing he had the patience (terror?) to not do so. It wouldn't have ended well for him if he had killed the parents of the magically strongest alicorn in the world.
mind over matter huh!
Oof, that was AWESOME!
This is what courage looks like
Not gonna lie, I kept expecting Velvet to reveal to Sludge that bursting into flames was a trait that Twilight inherited from her side of the family.
Found a few question marks instead of periods.

The second one is an error, thank you, but the first one is actually on purpose.
Always love a story where Velvet gets to be a badass mother. I mean, her kids must have gotten it from somewhere.
11764030
but the first one isn't a question, at least it doesn't read like that.
Unless you meant
That whelp would tell his pony what had happened soon enough, but what dragon was afraid of a pony?
11764055
A question mark at the end of a declarative sentence tends to indicate that it should be read as not being a simple declaration of a fact. My read here would be that he's not entirely certain that he isn't afraid of a pony, (especially given the terrain damage said pony has done in a fight).

The paragraph continues, though. It says:
If I rephrase it, it would be:
"Even if no dragon was afraid of a pony, there was no reason for Sludge to stick around.''
On its own, the question mark doesn't make sense; with context, it does.
I would say this is a pretty awesome story not only having Twilight velvet heard the news about what sludge did she went over there to talk with him for what he did to spike and Twilight for hurting them and lying to spike about being his dad which he got what he deserved never mess with her family like that this was a pretty good story keep up the good work
If only something like this happened in the show.
Sludge getting away with what he did to Spike in the show was messed up and bs
This was great. I was half expecting it to be Spike’s dragon parents, but pretty based for Twilight Velvet to support Spike as his adopted family. I love how you call them Spike’s “real family” without any caveat or qualifier.
11764095
I guess I just have never read something like that so it confused the hell out of me
This is the Sparkle family content I'm here for. What wholesome and loving parents
11764285
Because there's no need for a caveat.
I liked this; it was very good. I do wonder why She had tea with Ember though?
11764411
What better source for getting tips on raising a dragon? (Also I kinda head canon that Velvet just takes tea with Celestia - for obvious reasons - and occasionally Ember's there on a diplomatic outing.)
11764428
That makes sense and I would love to see a fic of that.
Lovely work. A much-delayed palate cleanser for this episode, but no less welcome for it. And honestly, I could believe Velvet's not being completely honest about her past experiences.
Just the story and chapter title alone after reading the description had me dying, now I can't wait to read about Sludge dying (jk) hehe
after reading: that was even better than I hoped
also ignore the deleted comment, I accidentally somehow posted a blank comment the first time I was editing this
11764428
Well depending on how everything is set up in Equestria, Velvet and Celestia could make the argument they're technically family, since Celestia is technically Twilight's aunt through marriage. So of course they're going to have a reason to have tea together.
I love the idea of that being how Velvet met Ember, though. Makes a lot of sense without coming out of left field, or needing a lot of lead up to get to that point.
Very nice. Short and concise.
Man, this was awesome! I'm a sucker for stories about Spike's relationship with Twilight Velvet and Night Light. We never got to see them interact, but with how close Spike is to Twilight and Shining Armor, there has to be a connection, right? There's so precious few of these stories, and this is an excellent addition! Reminds me of a story idea I once had about a Twilight's boyfriend coming over to their house to "meet the parents." He's super nervous and scared, then Cadance calms him down, assuring him that they already approved of him:
Again, fantastic story, my friend!
11764301
Given my headcanon that Spike's egg wasn't even an actual egg, calling them family is accurate but calling the two ponies you did his parents is much less so. Of course, telling Rainbow Dash that she's a father and then clarifying that you did not misspeak in any way would distract from the completely different story you're trying to tell here.
"I just want to talk to him."
10/10, pure grin-while-reading fuel.
I don't want to spread any rumours, no vicious gossip or idle tittletattle, but I heard it on the grapevine that Sludge hurt Twilight Velvet's boy. Please inform me if this isn't true, and I'll delete.
11765109
I am informed that this, in fact, is at least 70% likely to be correct.
11764752
Velvet and Night are his parents, though. Spike has already accepted that he doesnʼt care who he was born to, only who was raised by. And they was raised by Velvet and Night, which makes them his parents period. Adopted parents are still parents. Parenthood is so much more than just blood.

> this whole fic has me like
i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/facebook/000/006/077/so_good.jpg
Oh I didn't know how much I needed to read this story until I read it. This...this is beautiful, and I love it.
This was... incredibly cathartic to read.
11765215
Exactly. And there is nothing more terrifying than a mother protecting her children. No matter how old they might be.
Seeing Mama Sparkle go to town on this fat jerk was great.
The only thing that could've made this better was Ember coming to lay a smackdown on this idiot for messing with her sorta-boyfriend.
If only spike was treated with this much love in the show good fic just made me sad I liked(as a story element anyway) that velvet aknowegled that they just thought spike knew (even though I maintain that in the show not only would this be a sadder reality than just being ignored, seriously what parent worth anything doesn’t tell their child adopted or no that they love them, but the sparkles never really saw him as family at best Twilight’s assistant and no sparkles seven doesn’t count it was way to late, eg. They never invite him on trips, they didn’t come for his birthday party)
A good little story. There aren't enough stories that focus on the relationship between Spike and Twilight's parents
Oooof...
